Setting modem configurations
Modem configurations enable your handheld to use a Springboard
modem to communicate with remote devices, such as your ISP or dial-
in server.
To connect to remote devices using the TCP/IP software included in
the handheld operating system, you must set Network preferences in
addition to configuring Modem settings.
Note:
You can purchase a Springboard modem for use with your
handheld. See www.handspring.com.

1. From the Connection Preferences screen, select Standard Modem.
2. Tap Edit.
The name of the current configuration appears at the top of the
screen.
3. Tap the Connection Method pick list and select Serial to Modem.
4. Tap the Dialing pick list and select TouchTone or Rotary.
